Colonoscopy tomorrow, my first. How speshul, ugh.
The experience itself doesn’t sound awful. My throat imaging was pretty uncomfortable, but this at least lets me lie down while it happens and I don’t have to try to hold anything open myself.
But the 24 hours of Clear Liquids beforehand is less nice, especially when combined with the, uh, full ‘cleaning out’. I’m not enjoying that part.
I was going to complain about having to drink black coffee, but 1: it’s better than no coffee and 2: the taste isn’t bad. Not as pleasant as my usual coffee with milk, but it could be a lot worse.
I got Fancy Broth to try, which I’m looking forward to. If it’s good, maybe I’ll buy more for cooking with. Cooking solids, I mean.
My husband has asked me a few times what I’d like to do/eat when I’m done and honestly, I have no idea. I’m expected to be done by 11am, so… breakfast? Brunch? A nap?
The drugs will, apparently, make me relaxed, so a nap might end up being my main interest. Who knows! (Not me.)
I kind of want a nap now, to be honest.
